The selection of Nugent caps a prayerful, comprehensive search process conducted by the Board of Directors. Doug Mazza expressed confidence in the choice...

Ever since the 1990s when Oregon passed its Death with Dignity Act, I’ve been working to de-grease its slippery slope. Under the law, physicians may give lethal drugs to patients with terminal illnesses who want to end their lives.

I want to tell you about a special event to be held October 24 (encore performance November 1). That evening, Revive Us 2 will be live-streamed in theaters all across America. This is a great way for the body of Christ to come together and be strengthened, encouraged, and unified in praying for our nation. I’m sure you’d agree, with all that’s happening in our country, we need to be praying together. Kirk Cameron, along with Dr. Ben Carson, Ravi Zacharias, and I will bring Holy Spirit inspired messages. Friend, this is an exciting time — God is moving and creating opportunities for us to invite others to put their hope in Christ, but we can’t do it...

This morning I woke up to the news that at least 58 people were killed, and over 550 were wounded in a horrific shooting in Las Vegas. A gunman turned a concert into...

Hats off to Joni and Friends Texas and Wheels for the World who partnered together to provide more than 1,000 mobility devices and Beyond Suffering Bibles to children and adults with disability who lost their wheelchairs in Hurricane Harvey.

Mary Grace wrote, "It was a great privilege to serve the Lord during my days in Houston and Beaumont in the last...

The seventh book in our Irresistible Church series, “Are You Ready?” challenges ministry leaders to examine their perspective on disability ministry and explores the indispensable nature of people affected by disability in the church. This new eBook provides insight as to how a leader’s heart for disability trickles down and influences the congregation as a whole.

“Are You Ready?” ultimately answers the question, “What does it mean to fully belong?” All too often, well-meaning churches and pastors can establish what they think of as a disability ministry – physical accommodations for individuals...
